Need Advice for sick toddler barely eating/drinking

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 

DD is 19mos and is on her second respiratory virus since Christmas.  She is now barely eating and drinking which concerns me because she was already borderline FTT.  I still nurse her a few times each day, but other than that she is losing weight and I worry about dehydration.  She has battled multiple intolerances, but now she is mostly just off dairy (except yogurt and butter) and soy. (I removed cheese this week because she was reacting, unfortunately).  I'm not sure if I should take her to the ped or what.  How can I get food and fluids in her and how do I know what's enough?  Help!

I personally would nurse her more.  Hope that's possible.
